We Can't Catch a Break - Hurricanes 3 Rangers 1 - Post Game Thought

I don't know what to say anymore. We play these great periods where fans get happy and say hey, we are going to have a good game. Then nothing goes right what so ever. They gave up two terrible 2 on 1 in the 2nd and the 3rd was disgusting. Carolina had the puck for what felt like 90% of the period. Every shot we had either hit the glass or Ward right in the chest. This is horrible. The even strength play was just terrible. Opportunities were wasted with poor shots, missed pucks, and shots that were easy for Ward to save.

The Rangers have 30 games remaining and every team they are in the playoff hunt with has games in hand on us. Today's lines just didn't work, there is no other way to say it. They didn't play well together, Carolina was able to get plenty of odd man rushes and if not for some nice saves by Henrik, the game could've easily been 5-1. I really don't know what to say about this team anymore.
